  1. i resent Biblical epics (even Cecil B. De Mille's) but I have a soft spot for King David. I'm surprised to see no Blacks in the cast.

    1. There might still be some, I am more surprised with the choice for David, I mean he looks so random, like he has no screen charisma whatsoever, a very bland and boring choice, methinks, but we shall see.

  3. Should be interesting. It always kind of blows my mind that filmmakers have a built-in audience when using bible stories. Messing with the source material should be done very carefully.

  4. I shy away from anything biblical, so this one won't be for me.

    1. This one is more historical adventure than Bible, there was that series Of Kings and Prophets half a decade ago on ABC also on David and it was fun to watch, but David was super hot in it, Olly Rix is handsome, this one is not.
